BEOofCA

Black Elected Officials of California (BEO), formerly Black Elected Officials of the East Bay, is a non-profit organization founded in 2001 by Alameda County Supervisor Keith Carson.  Growing into an organization consisting of over 100 elected and appointed officials throughout Alameda and Contra Costa County, the vision has expanded to cover all of California.  Over the last couple of decades, the goal of the organization has been focused on increasing the quantity and quality of African-American elected and appointed officials in the Black community through networking and relationship building.  Today, the BEO is committed to supporting, providing resources, advocating for, and empowering elected and appointed officials and community leaders. 

The Black Elected Officials of California exists to support, resource, advocate, and empower Black Elected and Appointed Officials and the communities that they serve.
